Education
Our future is currently in our schools.
Too many people are unaware of the challenges faced by our students, school staff and parents when it comes to education. Too few people in our community are engaged in the local schools to improve critical issues in literacy and general, practical support. There is no more strategic area in a city to make AWESOME than our schools, yet most sit on the sidelines. It's time to make an impact! Love Costa Mesa is facilitating a collaborative, strategic approach to impacting the next generation in our city through our local schools. Contact us to learn more about community collaboration to make a difference in our schools.
